Summary
A Vacancy at University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust.
Applications are being sought for the post of Consultant Cardiologist, with a special interest in cardiac imaging. This post is predominantly at Poole Hospital.
The position being replaced includes all aspects of specialised cardiac imaging including cardiac MRI, cardiac CT, stress echo and TOE, but other sub-specialty experience will also be considered in suitable candidates.
UHD Cardiology are also recruiting a fixed term 12 month Locum Consultant with an interest in Heart Failure and Imaging. Therefore, there is potential to amend the job plan across both posts, for the right candidate(s).
The appointee will be expected to spend 10 Programmed Activities (average 4 hour sessions) per week as laid out in the provisional job plan based on Direct Patient Care and this will include work relating to prevention, emergency work (including on call), subspecialty sessions, ward rounds, outpatient activities, clinical diagnostic work, other patient treatment, public health duties, multi-disciplinary meetings and administration relating to the above. Timetables may be changed in the future to meet the changing needs of the Directorate and the successful candidate could be asked to take on additional work in general cardiology depending on their skill set - this will attract additional PAs.
We do reserve the right to close this advertisement early if we receive a high volume of suitable applications
This is a very exciting time to be working in Dorset. Poole and Royal Bournemouth Hospitals are now part of University Hospitals Dorset. Both sites are currently undergoing major building projects and acute Cardiology work has recently moved across to the Bournemouth site, with more elective activity moving to the Poole site in the future. This post will involve working on both sites, but with most of the time being spent working on the Poole site.
The successful applicant will join an enthusiastic, hard-working team of 19 other cardiologists and one associate specialist, located across sites at Bournemouth and Poole hospitals. The unit is characterised by exceptionally close team working and cohesive strategy, with excellent functional MDT meetings in cross-sectional imaging, echocardiography, endocarditis, surgery (by direct videoconference link), inherited cardiac disease and EP/devices. The successful applicant will share the Cardiology Directorates core values of excellence and team working.
Please see the attached job description and person specification for further information about the position.
Informal inquires prior to application are encouraged.
